FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The previous discussion may contain statements that constitute
"forward-looking information" or "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. We use
words such as "may", "would", "could", "should", "will", "likely",
"expect", "anticipate", "believe", "intend", "plan", "forecast",
"outlook", "project", "estimate" and similar expressions suggesting
future outcomes or events to identify forward-looking statements.
Any such forward-looking statements are based on information
currently available to us, and are based on assumptions and
analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception
of historical trends, current conditions and expected future
developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate
in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and
developments will conform with our expectations and predictions is
subject to a number of risks, assumptions and uncertainties, many
of which are beyond our control, and the effects of which can be
difficult to predict, including, without limitation: risks of
conducting business in foreign markets, legal claims and/or
regulatory actions against us; the unpredictability of, and
fluctuation in, the trading price of our Common Shares; changes in
laws and governmental regulations; and other factors set out in our

Form 40-F filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission, and subsequent filings. In evaluating forward-looking
statements, we caution readers not to place undue reliance on any
forward-looking statements and readers should specifically consider
the various factors which could cause actual events or results to
differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking

laws, we do not intend, nor do we undertake any obligation, to
update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect
subsequent information, events, results or circumstances or
otherwise.
